How will your actions help, hurt, or affect others than yourself? <br />2. What would be the consequences on society if others followed your example? <br />3. Would the world be a better place if everyone shared your viewpoint or acted <br />as you do? <br />4. What's the right thing to do? <br />5. Is that fair? <br />6. If you did not have a financial interest in the situation, how would you feel? <br />7. If you did not know the particular individual(s) involved, would you feel <br />any differently? <br />8. If you were an objective, independent judge trying to reach the fairest solu- <br />tion, how would you decide? <br />9. How would you feel if you were on the other side? <br />10. How would you like it if someone did that to you or treated you that way? <br />Il. Is this simply a matter of personal choice, or are there questions of right and <br />wrong involved also? <br />12. What would your parents, or the law, or your religion say is right? <br />13. What does your conscience tell you? <br /> <br /> <br />
